I had my radix and AMW installed at the same time about a month ago. Today I went out to drain the catch can and it was dry, then I noticed the lines are backwards. The line from the PCV valve is on the bottom port on the catch can instead of the top. Vice versa with the tube going to the throttle body.

Has it hurt anything being backwards? Could this create a power lose in the motor. Maybe robbing induction from my radix.

Where has all the gunk been going if not in the catch can?

I will swap the tubes around tomorrow when I get to work.

I'm a dummy for not realizing this while we were installing.

 

I installed mine backwards also, shouldn't hurt anything, as for where all the gunk, maybe you weren't getting any oil going through there in the first place, I'm sure someone with some knowledge will chime in

Is there any oily evidence in the intake plenum?

 

I doubt it would hurt anything. VERY nice truck BTW!!!

 

The factory engines suck oil and vapors into the intake. That is what the pcv is for, partially emissions purposes to burn the vapors and pulling the blow-by gases out of the crankcase helps keep the oil clean. I'm sure there is no harm done.
